  • Risk Factors Associated with Necrotising Enterocolitis in Very Low Birth Weight Infants in Malaysian Neonatal Intensive Care Units
    O riginal A rticle Singapore Med J 2012; 53(12) : 826 Risk factors associated with necrotising enterocolitis in very low birth weight infants in Malaysian neonatal intensive care units Nem-Yun Boo1, MRCP, FRCPCH, Irene Guat Sim Cheah2, MRCP, FRCPCH; Malaysian National Neonatal Registry Introduction This study aimed to identify the risk factors associated with necrotising enterocolitis (NEC) in very low birth weight (VLBW; weight < 1,501 g) infants in Malaysian neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). Methods This was a retrospective study based on data collected in a standardised format for all VLBW infants born in 2007 (n = 3,601) and admitted to 31 NICUs in Malaysian public hospitals. A diagnosis of NEC was made based on clinical, radiological and/or histopathological evidence of stage II or III, according to Bell’s criteria. Logistic regression analysis was performed to determine the significant risk factors associated with NEC. ResuLts 222 (6.2%) infants developed NEC (stage II, n = 197; stage III, n = 25). 69 (31.3%) infants died (stage II, n = 58; stage III, n = 11). The significant risk factors associated with NEC were: maternal age (adjusted odds ratio [OR] 1.024, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.003–1.046; p = 0.027), intrapartum antibiotics (OR 0.639, 95% CI 0.421–0.971; p = 0.036), birth weight (OR 0.999, 95% CI 0.998–0.999; p < 0.001), surfactant therapy (OR 1.590, 95% CI 1.170– 2.161; p = 0.003), congenital pneumonia (OR 2.00, 95% CI 1.405–2.848; p < 0.001) and indomethacin therapy for the closure of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) (OR 1.821, 95% CI 1.349–2.431; p = 0.001).

Read Full License Page 1/15 Abstract Prehospital spinal immobilization is a widely used procedure in the emergency medical service (EMS) system worldwide, while the incidence of patients with spinal injury (SI) is relatively low, and unnecessary prehospital spinal immobilization is associated with patient complications. This study aimed to determine the association between prehospital spine immobilization and favorable functional outcomes at hospital discharge among trauma patients with SI. We conducted a retrospective cohort study using the Pan-Asia Trauma Outcomes Study (PATOS) registry data from January 1, 2016, to November 30, 2018. A total of 759 patients with SI were enrolled from 43,752 trauma patients in the PATOS registry during the study period. The subjects had a median age of 58 years ( Q1−Q3,41−72), and 438 (57.7%) patients had prehospital spine immobilization.

    8th World Congress on Design and Health 2012, 27th June-1st July 2012. Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia Pre-Congress Seminar 27th June 2012 EVOLUTION OF PUBLIC HEALTHCARE FACILITIES DESIGNS TO HEALTH TREND IN MALAYSIA A RETROSPECT OF NATION BUILDING FROM PRE-COLONIAL TO TODAY ASSOC. PROF. AR. DATIN NORWINA MOHD NAWAWI , INTERNATIONAL ISLAMIC UNIVERSITY MALAYSIA ABSTRACT Malaysia has its own inbuilt history of evolution of healthcare facilities designs from the traditional to contemporary mega structures we witness today. Each designs has its own story foretold the epidemiology phenomena, capacity and inspiration of a developing nation. From simplistic idea of housing aspects of health in single isolated buildings to complex structures that needs reviewing towards a sustainable future. The pictorial presentations briefly explore Malaysian public healthcare facilities from its humble beginnings in nation building from pre-colonial to what it is today. The objective is to provide ideas on the basis of why and how these designs were pragmatically evolved through time, to professionals, allied disciplines and users. Both qualitative and quantitative methodologies were adopted for this continuing research. Primary and secondary data, through literature review, observations, random interviews, post occupancy evaluations and hands-on experiences, were utilised. The significance of this presentation includes a sense of importance to the role of individual players in the healthcare services, construction industry, the trust that our Creator, and humanity had conferred on us, towards contributing and sustaining a healthy and hence a ‘wealthy” nation.
